And how does one get to be picked to travel around the world and work at shop openings?

“You talk to people; you fold clothes; they take pictures of you; they take topless pictures of you. And if management liked you, you get to be promoted as ‘greeter’ and you get to stand outside the store.”

There’s no room for drama, emo or pouting for the A&F boys. These constantly grinning hunks are the face of A&F and they know it.

When asked if they feel awkward having to take their tops off all the time, boy-next-door Trey, 20, from Chicago, says: “It’s not that different than going to the beach.”

He stresses that it’s really not just the six-pack and the pecs that the company is looking for.

“A&F guys need to have personality and warmth -- we’re bringing that preppy American feel,” he explains as he looks you straight in the eye with a disarmingly friendly smile. Trey has it down pat.

"I don't believe in dieting"

A&F hunk photo tip no.1: Blue Steel is on par with abs.Out of the 108 boys, six are local guys recruited for Abercrombie & Fitch Hong Kong.

Wilson Chung, 20, was recruited while out clubbing in Lan Kwai Fong. He finds people who feel up his chest and arms during photographs “pretty weird.”

But Chung obviously loves his summer job. It’s an opportunity to hang out with dudes from all over the world “doing all sorts of crazy.”

As for the upkeep of the legendary A&F abs, the company does not issue a strict gym regimen for them to follow.

“It’s up to us. That way, it’s more organic,” says Trey. He goes to the gym twice a day, around 15-20 hours a week.

“And I don’t believe in dieting. Oh my god, the omelet is amazing at the W.”

Yui, 27, from Japan is strikingly beautiful, perfectly bilingual and perfectly disciplined. He works out five or six days per week and is at the gym from 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. before he goes to work.

Maito, a cute, baby-faced half-Brazilian, half-Japanese 19-year-old, actually plays for the Japanese soccer team Shimizu S-Pulse in Japan. He works out at the gym four or five times a week for two hours and also runs.

The boys are definitely enjoying the attention, as well as the camaraderie that comes with working and traveling with a group of like-minded guys.

Although they didn't get to fly into the city together to promote Abercrombie & Fitch Hong Kong.

“You do not want all of us in a pressurized container. Oh no,” as Trey put it.
